AEW Dynamite Results 7/24 - Team Elite Vs. Team AEW In A Blood & Guts Match, FTW Championship On The Line

Welcome to Wrestling Inc.'s results for "AEW Dynamite" on July 24, 2024, coming to you live from the Bridgestone Arena in Nashville, Tennessee!

The Blood & Guts match will be making its return, as Team Elite (Matthew Jackson, Nicholas Jackson, Kazuchika Okada, Jack Perry, and "Hangman" Adam Page) collide with Team AEW (Swerve Strickland, Darby Allin, Anthony Bowens, Max Caster, and Mark Briscoe). Two rings will be enclosed by a Steel Cage, and one competitors from each team will start off the match. At timed intervals, alternating members of each team will join in, and the match will only officially kick off when everyone enters the ring. The only way to win the match is by submission or surrender.

Chris Jericho will be putting the FTW Championship on the line for the first time since he successfully retained it against HOOK and Katsuyori Shibata at AEW Double or Nothing back in May as he defends it against Minoru Suzuki. As per the contract Suzuki presented to Jericho last Wednesday on "Dynamite", Big Bill and Bryan Keith will both be barred from ringside. Both Jericho and Suzuki were able to pick up wins this past Friday on "AEW Rampage" after Suzuki defeated The Butcher, and The Outrunners came up short to Jericho and Bill.

Will Ospreay's 52 day reign as AEW International Champion came to an end last week when MJF dethroned him as titleholder. The match between the two almost ended in a time limit draw, but MJF was able to pin Ospreay at the last second to emerge victorious. Following such, MJF has something on his mind to share tonight.

Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. will be competing in her first match since unsuccessfully being able to win the TBS Championship on the September 16, 2023 episode of "AEW Collision" as she squares off with Hikaru Shida. Baker and Shida are quite familiar with one another as in-ring competitors, having both faced off and joined forces on several occasions dating back to the November 20, 2019 edition of "Dynamite".

Additionally, Mariah May will be appearing on tonight's show as a new version of herself while she continues to prepare to challenge former mentor Toni Storm for the AEW Women's World Championship at AEW All In.

MJF gloats about defeating Will Ospreay last week, and makes it clear that he hasn't forgotten about the AEW World Championship. He says when the spotlight is on himself, he shines bright like a diamond. He says Ospreay melts under the spotlight, and says he beat Ospreay without breaking a sweat. He brags about the praise his match with Ospreay has received, then takes a couple of shots at Ospreay.

MJF mocks Ospreay and tells him to face him like a man. He calls him worthless, then parades around the AEW International Champion and continues to mock Ospreay.

He says he deserves a title worthy of his superior intellect, talent, and upbringing.

MJF throws the International Championship into a garbage can, then says he deserves a title that deserves the best wrestler and country in the world. He then unveils a cloth set up on a table to reveal the new AEW American Championship.

Ospreay appears out of nowhere and looks to blindside MJF, but MJF slides out of the ring before he can. Ospreay tells MJF he can tell his best to be a terrible person, but no one needs it. He voices his frustrations with the way MJF beat him last week, and says he couldn't do it without the "Dynamite" Diamond Ring. He says he has some good news, then announces that he will be receiving his rematch for the AEW American Championship at AEW All In. He grabs the AEW International Championship from the garbage can and takes it to the back.
